Tuscany







Having seen the Accademia on Saturday and the Uffizi on Sunday, we decided to take it easy on Monday. So we bought a bus ticket and picked a route at random. It took us up into the hills of Tuscany, to a little town named Fiesole.







The bus climbed higher and higher, giving us a different view of Florence in the valley below.









Along the way we passed by this park.







And this rare and rustic water fountain. In Italy water is not routinely served in restaurants. A liter of water will cost 2-4 Euros.










The views were spectacular.





And often quaint.
